New York Times: We Only Help Cause School Shootings to Push Gun Control
Daniel Greenfield
Does the media help cause school shootings? Short answer, yes. Some 200 years later, German television debuted “Death of a Student”, a six-part series about Claus Wagner, a high school student who commits suicide by jumping under a train.

Democrats Condemn Trump for Not Inviting Them to Embassy Opening They Oppose
Daniel Greenfield
In, “The Democrats don’t have a foreign policy, they have a Trump policy”, I recently wrote that the hatred of Trump has hollowed out the Dems so that they no longer think about a lot of issues, but just reflexively oppose whatever Trump is doing.

The New Yorker has a story in which it describes, what it claims, is a law-enforcement official, a broad category that includes plenty of Obama people embedded in the government, “leaking” Michael Cohen’s financial records to the media. 1.

Daniel Greenfield
In Hamastan, it’s always “Chicks up front”. Here’s a Hamas leader boasting about using women and children in their terrorist infrastructure project.

Memo to ABC News: Rock Throwing is Not Symbolic, It’s Violent
Daniel Greenfield
There are great moments in the annals of network news journalism. CBS had Dan Rather’s time traveling documents from the Vietnam War that were somehow written in Microsoft Word.

Murphy Brown and the Desperate Monetization of #Resistance
Daniel Greenfield
The only thing funny about the Murphy Brown trailer is its existence. There’s an actress playing an anchorwoman (whom 60 Minutes briefly decided should be an actual anchorwoman before Candice Bergen brought them to their sense) lecturing us about “fake news” and “real journalism”. Fake news really doesn’t get any more fake than an actress…
